1. From your reading of the passage, what does ‘informal language’
refer to, and indicate if it can be used in academic writing?
The passage you provided does not explicitly mention the term 'informal
language.' Therefore, without additional context or information from the
passage, it is not possible to determine what 'informal language' refers to.
However, in general, informal language typically refers to casual, colloquial,
or conversational language that is more suitable for informal settings, such
as everyday conversations with friends or family. Informal language is
generally not appropriate for academic writing, which requires a more formal
and professional tone.
